Trivia:
Many of the products used in the film are real regional products commonly found in seacoast Maine (i.e. Oakhurst brand milk). moreGoofs:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: In several scenes, the Fowlers are drinking Moxie soda, a brand most people think disappeared in the 1950s. However, Moxie is still a going concern, but can only be purchased in Maine and some other locations around northern New England. moreQuotes:

An exceptional film which emulates the astounding talents of Tom Wilkinson. I thought he was OK in The Full Monty, but he is exceedingly well cast in the role of father who is grieving inside the loss of his only child. Tom acts with intelligence and resounding compassion as a man driven to revenge. The film is delivered and directed with a slow build up of tension towards a shocking and absorbing climax. This film offers great performances from the ensemble of actors and is directed intelligently. It maybe a tragic and slow film but it will leave the audience empathising with the characters rather than sympathising with them. A truly remarkable and contemporary film.
